[0020] In order to explain the technical content, structural features and effects achieved by the present invention in detail, the following is a detailed description in conjunction with the implementation modes and the accompanying drawings.

[0021] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the noise reduction switch 100 of the utility model includes a base 1, a button 2 and a reset member 3, wherein the button 2 is movably arranged in the base 1, and the reset member 3 is arranged between the button 2 and the base 1 and provides an elastic force for making one end of the button 2 extend out of the base 1; the base 1 is provided with limit ends 11 at both ends of the moving direction of the button 2, and the button 2 is provided with a limit portion 21 corresponding to the limit end 11; at least one of the limit end 11 and the limit portion 21 is provided with a buffer portion 22 which can buffer and reduce noise of the impact of the former two.

[0022] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The two opposite inner sides of the seat body 1 are provided with sliding grooves 12, and the two ends of the sliding grooves 12 form the limiting ends 11. The two opposite outer sides of the button 2 are provided with sliders 23, and the sliders 23 are slidably arranged in the sliding grooves 12, and the two ends of the sliders 23 form the limiting portions 21. By arranging sliders 23 on both sides of the button 2, the button 2 can move more stably when pressed and reset. And the sliders 23 are slidably placed in the sliding grooves 12, so that the button 2 can slide along the direction of the sliding grooves 12, which can not only limit the button 2, but also improve the sliding accuracy of the button 2.

[0023] Please refer to Figure 3, the buffer part 22 is arranged on at least one limiting part 21 of the slider 23. In this embodiment, the buffer part 22 is arranged on the two limiting parts 21 of the slider 23. The buffer part 22 includes a connecting part 221 and an elastic part 222, the connecting part 221 is connected to the limiting part 21, the elastic part 222 is connected to the connecting part 221, the elastic part 222 is located between the limiting end 11 corresponding to the end and the limiting part 21, and the elastic part 222 is bent relative to the connecting part 221. On the same limiting part 21, the number of the buffer parts 22 is two and they are arranged axially symmetrically. The two elastic parts 222 extend toward each other, and the outer side surface of the elastic part 222 forms a buffer surface 222a that contacts the limiting part 21. By setting the elastic part 222, the buffer part 22 has elasticity, so that it can generate buffering when the button 2 hits the seat 1, thereby achieving the purpose of noise reduction. The connecting portion 221, the elastic portion 222 and the limiting portion 21 are integrally formed. Figure 4 As shown, the buffer portion 22 is disposed on the limit portion 21 at the upper end of the slider 23. When the button 2 is pressed downward, there is no buffering between it and the base 1. When the button 2 is reset upward, the button 2 and the base 1 are buffered by the buffer portion 22.

[0024] Please see again Figure 1 and Figure 3 A guide column 24 extends from the lower end of the button 2, and a guide sleeve 13 is provided in the seat body 1 to extend upward. The guide column 24 is slidably sleeved on the guide sleeve 13. The reset member 3 is sleeved outside the guide sleeve 13. The reset member 3 is a compression spring, one end of which contacts the button 2, and the other end of which contacts the inner bottom of the seat body 1. The guide column 24 cooperates with the guide sleeve 13 to make the button 2 slide more smoothly on the seat body 1, so that the touch of pressing the switch is better.

[0025] See also Figure 1The seat body 1 includes a base 110 and an upper cover 120. The upper side of the upper cover 120 is provided with an opening 121 that connects the inside and the outside. The upper cover 120 is connected to the base 110, and the button extends out of the upper cover 120 through the opening 121. By setting the seat body 1 as the base 110 and the upper cover 120, the button 2 and the reset member 3 are more easily assembled into the seat body 1, thereby improving the convenience of assembly. Specifically, an elastic buckle 122 is provided on the outer side of one of the upper cover 120 and the base 110, and a card block 112 is provided on the other. When the upper cover 120 is connected to the base 110, the elastic buckle 122 is detachably engaged with the card block 112. By engaging the elastic buckle 122 with the card block 112, the upper cover 120 is detachably connected to the base 110, thereby improving the convenience of assembly.

[0026] For example Figure 1 As shown, in addition, the noise reduction switch 100 of the utility model further includes a magnet 4 and a Hall sensor (not shown in the figure), wherein the magnet 4 is disposed on the button 2 and located at the lower end of the guide column 24, and the Hall sensor is disposed on the lower bottom surface of the base 1. When the button 2 is pressed downward, the button 2 drives the magnet 4 to move downward and approach the Hall sensor, so that the Hall sensor generates an induction signal to trigger the switch.

[0027] Compared with the prior art, the utility model sets limit ends 11 at both ends of the base body 1, sets limit parts 21 at both ends of the button 2, and at least one of the limit ends 11 and the limit parts 21 is provided with a buffer part 22. Therefore, when the button 2 moves and hits the base body 1, the buffer part 22 can be used to buffer the impact of the limit end 11 and the limit part 21, thereby avoiding the collision between the two to produce a loud impact sound, greatly reducing noise, and achieving the effect of noise reduction.

[0028] The above disclosure is only a preferred example of the present invention, and certainly cannot be used to limit the scope of rights of the present invention. Therefore, equivalent changes made according to the scope of the patent application of the present invention still fall within the scope covered by the present invention.
